#10 Why Mental Health in Perimenopause Isn’t Just in Your Head - the Hormone and Nervous System Connection

This episode is part of my special three-part series with Dr. Lucy Caratti: How the Medical System is Failing Women in Perimenopause.

In Episode 1, we dive into Mental Health in Perimenopause and the Hidden Hormone / Nervous System Link. So often women are told their struggles are simply the result of isolated symptoms, just part of aging, or that nothing can really be done.

Together, Lucy and I unpack how hormonal fluctuations, a frayed nervous system, and long-held core beliefs collide in midlife, leaving so many women anxious, depleted, and questioning themselves.

This isn’t about character flaws. It’s about biology and psychology intersecting in ways most of us were never taught to understand, and reframing this struggle as part of a bigger, more hopeful picture.
